The Most Frequent Conversation Today

As I said yesterday, I am on a team with a couple of interesting people. In my 4 hour meeting today, I think three hours of it were taken up by variations on the following discussion:

Me: We can't do that
Them: Why not?
Me: Because its not an option in the simulation
Them: Why not?
Me: Because the simulation writers didn't make it an option
Them: So why can't we do it?
Me: Because there is no way to put it in the system. Its not in the simulation.
Them: Well that doesn't make any sense. I want to do this!
Me: We can't do that
Them: Why not?
(loud crash as I throw myself out of the window of the third floor team room we're in)

P.S.
Thanks for the birthday wishes! And Megan, it wasn't belated. It was May 2. :) And Ty, you're just sick. haha

Hmmm....last night I poured over the results of Quarter 3 and evaluated the expansion possibilites. :) Some of my friends took me out for pizza, but other than that, it was a low key birthday. But I did watch Gilmore Girls, House, and America's Next Top Model which made me happy and had Boston Legal and Scrubs left over for today....

So I checked your birthday counter, and it said time was up...so I wasn't sure if I was late or not. But now I know and knowing is half the battle!
